I was actually considering getting an iPad + bluetooth keyboard for remote (web) coding. Ditched the idea because the available "IDEs" are not yet very matured (bought a MacBook instead). I'm sure this will change in future. An IDE for web coding could be even implemented as a browser app, as long as you do the sftp stuff in server side. Full keyboard support (shortcuts for everything) is major requirement, because you want to keep your fingers on your bluetooth keyboard. Not a problem for web app, though.
Oh, and you won't really need integrated development environment if Apple enabled multitasking for every app + makes possible to switch application on external keyboard (i.e. support for cmd+tab). Then separate apps would do fine.
- minalecs 16y agowhen you start having to carry around the ipad and a keyboard.. whats the difference between that and a netbook now.. where you will have a much easier time running applications.. example most of us would probably like a browser and ide at the same time... on an ipad this is a major PITA.
- Yaggo 16y agoA netbook? Apple doesn't make one :-) The point is that I'm going to have the iPad anyway and was thinking if it could replace a laptop, because I avoid carrying multiple devices.
